Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on comic news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email our team at either david@multiversitycomics.com or brian@multiversitycomics.com.

– If Titan Comics was looking to get our attention with their new Tenth and Eleventh Doctor “Doctor Who” comics, then they got it when they announced that Nick Abadzis and Elena Casagrande were crafting a Tenth Doctor book and Al Ewing and Rob Williams were co-writing an Eleventh Doctor series with Simon Fraser on art. Those are two amazing teams – NICK ABADZIS – and teams that certainly makes me want to pick up the books. Who am I kidding? Of course I am going to pick up these books. The writer of “Laika”, two great artists and a killer British duo of writers? Wowza.

– Speaking of “Doctor Who”, Lego CUUSOO is now accepting submissions for “Doctor Who” themed sets. Please, please, please create some sweet Doctor themed Lego sets so I can vote on them. I want them.

– Oh hey! Get your first look at the new First Nations/Native American member of the Justice League, from Jeff Lemire and Mike McKone’s upcoming “Justice League United”. Not only is she Cree, but she’s a teenaged woman! She’s like the continuation of Kamala Khan. Another nice step in developing a little bit of diversity in the hero set at DC Comics.

– In case you missed it, TEDxTeen and Marvel teamed up for a “All-New Marvel Now! Teen Heroes” sampler and presentation from editor Sana Amanat on the growing diversity of characters in the Marvel universe. If you had the chance to watch, good on you. If not, I am sure video of it will be up soon as they always are for TED talks.

– Kelly Sue DeConnick! Joe Keatinge! Ming Doyle! Brett Schoonover! Steve Niles! Steve Rude! DC has done a hell of a job keeping exciting creators on their digital-first series “Adventures of Superman”, and the latest group of creators set to work on the book are amongst the most exciting yet.

– Kickstarter alert! Tom Ward and Luke Parker are teaming up for “Merrick: The Sensational Elephantman” and they could use your help. With Parker’s superb Mignola-influenced art, this is one you might want to check out if you’re a fan of the Mignolaverse.
